Evaluation of urban trees selection for sustainable parking lots
The increments of urban population have led to an increased need of facility. One of the facilities required is parking lots to meet the increased use of vehicles. The larger car park surface has led to an increase in temperature in the city making it hotter. Therefore, tree planting is necessary to...
